Before fitting cladding panels its recommended that where there is a largebevel or radius to the edge of the door or fascia, that the panel is reducedin depth so that the edge of the cladding panel is level with the start ofthe bevel, or panel can be left flush with front fascias or door fronts.

If cladding panel is cut, fit cut edge against the wall and seal as appropriate

E�� Measure and mark or scribe the filler panel, cut panel as required , fix thefiller panel to the cladding panel with either stretcher brackets or awooden baton (see fig 5).

Slide both parts into position (see fig 5) and secure by screwing throughbase unit gable, ensure fixings are placed in a discrete position inside gable.

Note: To fit bath panels timber under the bath rim is required to hold the bath panel clips. In the event that thebath does not have timber for the clips, the installer will need to fit timber to the under side of the bath rim as

necessary, depending on tiling the bath panels may require trimming.

All cut panels must be sealed with silicone sealer

F��

When the bath has an end panel, fix with stretcher platesto the timber under the bath rim and to the wall(see fig 1) (Use appropriate fixings for wall type ) .

Two Keku clips can be fitted to the front edge of the endpanel to allow the bath side panel to be clipped into place

Three Keku clips can be fitted to the timber under the bath rimso that the side panel can be clipped into position (see fig 2)

The two stretcher plates can be fixed to wall(Use appropriate fixings for wall) type) approx. 300mm fromthe underside of the bath as stops for the bath panel (see fig 3)
